4 finely chopped garlic cloves
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 1/2 tablespoons basil, or to taste
1 tablespoon marjoram, or to taste
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes or 5 fresh seeded tomatoes
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup white wine
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (or equal amounts

Heat thin layer of olive oil in large saute pan. Saute onion and garlic for about 3 minutes; add celery. Saute for 5 minutes more then add the basil and marjoram. Cook for 3 minutes; add tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the wine and simmer for 30 minutes on lowest heat setting.

Meanwhile, season chicken (or veal) with salt and pepper. Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a skillet and saute until just browned. (If using shrimp, do not saute. Just add to tomato mixture).
